Sending Email with AWS SES Configset

[aaronp]

Hello,

Is there a way we could modify the email message headers in Octopus Deploy email plug-in?

We wish to keep track the number of emails sent using AWS SES with Configset with this link: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/using-configuration-sets-in-email.html

Any help on this please?

Hi @aaronp,

Thanks for reaching out. At the moment there’s no way to modify the headers of the email sent by our built-in step. But it’s not a bad idea. I’ll mention it to the team and see if we can at least consider it for our backlog or Uservoice.

For the time being, the only workaround I can think of is to stop using the built-in email step, and instead use a custom step template that uses powershell/.NET to send the mail message. This way you should have a lot more control over your mail’s headers (I believe. Haven’t tested it).

Hope that helps!

Hi Dalmiro,

Sounds great! Thanks for raising this to your team.

I’ll go check your suggestion on the powershell/.NET script and see if it works.

Thanks a lot!
